The Cort G280 Select Double Cutaway Electric Guitar takes inspiration from the well - loved G280DX. It comes with a pearloid pickguard, a rosewood fingerboard, and a powerful humbucker, offering a stylish look and top - notch build quality. Crafted for easy playing and outstanding sound, it features an alder body with a flame maple top and HSS pickups. These pickups can create a wide range of sounds for both classic and modern music. The alder body and flamed maple top produce a warm, full - bodied tone with a hint of elegance and a crisp, balanced high - end. The Voiced Tone pickups, including the VTH - 77 humbucker at the bridge for fat tones and the VTS - 63 single coils for clarity, power the guitar. The Cort® CFA - III Tremolo system on this guitar has improvements like better sustain, a faster pick attack, and a more balanced fundamental tone. Its recessed design allows for pitch changes in both directions, adding to the guitar's sound versatility. The compound radius fingerboard (12' - 15.75') makes chord - playing in the lower register easy and supports high - speed soloing in the upper register. The combination of a hard maple neck and rosewood fingerboard provides punchy mid - range tones from the maple and warm, rich highs from the rosewood. Cort® Staggered Locking tuners ensure stable tuning and an easy string - changing process. The new Ergo - V neck profile enhances playing comfort for all players. Technical specs include a bolt - on construction, alder body, flamed maple top, hard maple neck, rosewood fretboard with a 22 - fret, 25.5' (648㎜) scale, Cort® Staggered Locking tuners, Cort® CFA - III Tremolo bridge, Cort® Voiced Tone VTS63 & VTH77 pickups, 1 Volume & 1 Tone with a 5 - Way Switch, chrome hardware, and D'Addario® EXL120 strings.
Using your Cort G280 Select Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, tune the guitar using the Cort® Staggered Locking tuners. They're easy to use and keep your guitar in tune. When you play, the compound radius fingerboard makes it simple to switch between chords and high - speed solos. You can adjust the sound using the 1 Volume and 1 Tone controls along with the 5 - Way Switch. This gives you different pickup combinations for various sounds. For the Cort® CFA - III Tremolo system, you can pull up or push down to change the pitch, but be gentle to avoid damage. As for maintenance, keep your guitar in a dry and cool place. Wipe it down after each use to remove sweat and dirt. If you need to change the strings, the locking tuners make it quick. Just loosen the string, remove it, and put a new one on following the same path. When cleaning the fretboard, use a soft cloth and a bit of fretboard cleaner. Check the tuning regularly, especially if you travel with the guitar. With proper care, your Cort G280 Select will serve you well for a long time.
